Former Georgia LB Leonard Floyd is having a big night for the Chicago Bears.
Entering the game Thursday night, Floyd had just .5 sacks on the year, and his first full NFL sack came in the first half. However, Floyd will never forget his second one either in the third quarter. It will also go down as his first career touchdown.
Floyd strip-sacked Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers and recovered his own forced fumble in the end zone.
Floyd’s first career touchdown was also the first touchdown scored in the game. The Bears lead 10-6 in the third quarter.
Floyd returned to the lineup for the first time in three weeks Thursday night after missing the previous two games with a calf injury. The Bears drafted Floyd with the No. 9 overall pick this past spring.
